A Little Bit Of Everything

歌词
With his back against the San Francisco traffic,
他背对着旧金山的街道
On the bridges side that faces towards the jail,
站在桥边,面对着那个监狱
Setting out to join a demographic,
还想再当一个普通人
He hoists his first leg up over the rail.
他终于迈出了第一步
And a phone call is made,
打了一个电话
Police cars show up quickly.
警车很快就出现了
The sergeant slams his passenger door.
那个警官狠狠地敲车门
He says, “Hey son why don’t you talk through this with me,
他说:“嘿小子,你怎么不就在这跟我说清楚
Just tell me what you’re doing it for.”
说说你这么做是为了什么”
“Oh, it’s a little bit of everything,
“噢,这只是生活中很平常的一件事(不需要理由)”
It’s the mountains,
就像那山
It’s the fog,
就像那雾
It’s the news at six o’clock,
就像每天的早间新闻
It’s the death of my first dog,
也像我第一条狗狗的离开
It’s the angels up above me,
像那个一直都在我头顶的那个天使
It’s the song that they don’t sing,
像那首他们从来不唱的歌
It’s a little bit of everything.”
这真的,只是很平常的一件事情
An older man stands in a buffet line,
一个老人站在自助餐厅的取餐桌边
He is smiling and holding out his plate,
他微笑着,手里端着他的餐盘
And the further he looks back into his timeline,
他回忆着很久很久之前的事情
That hard road always had led him to today,
那些艰难的过去使他走到今天
And making up for when his bright future had left him,
当他想起他眼中的美好未来化为泡影
Making up for the fact that his only son is gone,
当他想起他唯一的儿子离开了
And letting everything out once, His server asks him,
他立马就停下了回忆。旁边的服务员问他:
Have you figured out yet, what it is you want?
“你想好了吗?你需要点什么?”
I want a little bit of everything,
我想要的其实很少
The biscuits and the beans,
饼干和青豆
Whatever helps me to forget about
任何可以帮助我忘记那些
The things that brought me to my knees,
那些让我跪下的事情(让我难过的事情)
So pile on those mashed potatoes,
很多很多的土豆泥
And an extra chicken wing,
和一个赠送的鸡翅
I’m having a little bit of everything.
我现在有我想要的一切
Somewhere a pretty girl is writing invitations,
一个美丽的女孩正在某个地方写请柬
To a wedding she has scheduled for the fall,
为了她那个将要在秋天举行的婚礼
Her man says, “Baby, can I make an observation?
她的他说:“宝贝,我能看一眼吗?
You don’t seem to be having any fun at all.”
你似乎一点也不开心”
She said, “You just worry about your groomsmen and your shirt-size,
她说:“你只关心你的伴郎,还有衣服是否合身
And rest assured that this is making me feel good,
剩下的就是看有没有让我不高兴
I think that love is so much easier than you realize,
我想,爱比你认为的要简单很多
If you can give yourself to someone,
如果你愿意把自己完全交某个人
Then you should.
然后你就会明白
Cause it’s a little bit of everything,
因为爱和生活中其他的事情一样普通
The way you choke, the way you ache,
你噎住的样子,你痛苦的样子
It is getting up before you,
这样的事无时无刻都在发生
So I can watch you as you wake.
这样我能看到你内心柔软的地方
So in the day in late September,
在这样的九月,在这样的一天
It’s not some stupid little ring,
也许不需要什么愚蠢的婚戒
I’m giving a little bit of everything.
我只是想让一切都变得不同
Oh, it’s a little bit of everything,
就算一点点也好
It’s the matador and the bull,
比如斗牛士和公牛
It’s the suggested daily dosage,
比如医生告诉我我每天要吃的药
It is the red moon when it’s full.
比如红色的满月
All these psychics and these doctors,
所有的巫医,抑或医生
They’re all right and they’re all wrong,
他们对也好,错也好
It’s like trying to make out every word,
好像在哼一首记不清的歌的时候
When they should simply hum along,
想要想起每一句歌词
It’s not some message written in the dark,
那不是什么写在暗处的看不清的字条
Or some truth that no one’s seen,
或者是一些谁都没见过的“事实”
It’s a little bit of everything.
那只是生活中的一件小事
